14It is changed as clay under the seal; And [all things] stand forth as a garment:

15And from the wicked their light is withholden, And the high arm is broken.

16Hast thou entered into the springs of the sea? Or hast thou walked in the recesses of the deep?

17Have the gates of death been revealed unto thee? Or hast thou seen the gates of the shadow of death?

18Hast thou comprehended the earth in its breadth? Declare, if thou knowest it all.

19Where is the way to the dwelling of light? And as for darkness, where is the place thereof,

20That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, And that thou shouldest discern the paths to the house thereof?
